Dong Chengbin looked helpless, "But I can't tell the truth. If she has fetal force, I don't know what to say."
"Please help me, Princess. I'm not good at lying."
As he spoke, he bowed to Lu Qingtang.
Lu Qingtang was so frightened that he backed away, "What you said is like swearing. You are not good at lying, but I am good at it."
"Please ask me to help you lie to your wife, and ask my man to beat you. Our husband and wife will become a pair of jackals and tigers."
They made a plan to ask Dong Chengbin to come up with a trick to deceive Ji Wuxuan and get direct evidence from him to frame King Zhennan, and then return to Yanling with this evidence. Ji Wuxuan is dead, and so is Dong Chengbin. No one except Mo Zeshen and His Majesty knows about this.
It was hard for Emperor Kang Yuan to kill his own son, and he was alone in Nanzhou, so he did not deliberately disobey the will.
In this way, it not only saves His Majesty's face, but also saves the Zhennan Palace, and prevents Dong Chengbin from being killed, killing three birds with one stone.
Since Zhou Yu was planning to trick Dong Chengbin, he would have to disappear for a few days. For a pregnant woman, she would naturally feel flustered after not seeing her husband for a long time. But no one knew what to say. Everyone praised Lu Qingtang, saying that she was the best liar.
Zeng Ke, in particular, wanted to let the whole world know her embarrassing stories, so Lu Qingtang took him hiking this morning.
But after all, this lie needs to be told.
Lu Qingtang said to Dong Chengbin: "Don't worry, I'll tell her again at dinner, just do whatever you have to do and don't show any flaws in front of her."
Dong Chengbin looked grateful, "Then there is Princess Lao."
But Lu Qingtang was in trouble, how to tell this lie.
…
At dinner time, today's dinner was very sumptuous. Everyone except Ning Xinran knew that this meal was actually Dong Chengbin's farewell banquet.
If he goes well this time, he can make Ji Wuxuan trust him. If it didn't go well, he might even lose his life.
Su Mu and Kou Dan were eating the same meal with their three babies at a small table nearby, and they, the adults, started chatting in front of the dinner table.
Lu Qingtang was eating when he felt Dong Chengbin's gaze again.
We can't delay it any longer, what needs to be said needs to be said.
She looked at Ning Xinran with a smile, picked up the serving chopsticks and gave her a piece of meat, "Miss Ning, it will be good for the baby in your belly if you eat more."
The bowl in front of Ning Xinran was filled with vegetables by Dong Chengbin, who was eating enthusiastically.
She smiled at Lu Qingtang, "Thank you, Princess, she is really approachable."
Lu Qingtang nodded awkwardly, and then said to her carefully: "Can you lend me Dong Chengbin for two days?"
"ah?"
Ning Xinran had some surprise on her face.
Not only her, but everyone, including Mo Zeshen, turned dark.
Lu Qingtang winked at Mo Ze, then turned around and continued to talk to Ning Xinran: "That's not what I meant. What I meant was that I wanted him to do something for me. It will take ten days and a half, okay. ?"
Ning Xinran immediately laughed, "What's inappropriate about this? You've helped us so much, let alone doing something. We're willing to go to the mountain of knives or the sea of fire."
Lu Qingtang breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled proudly at Dong Chengbin.
Dong Chengbin nodded and continued to pick up food for Ning Xinran, coaxing her to eat more.
After dinner, Dong Chengbin went into the room and talked to Ning Xinran for a while, and didn't come out until she fell asleep.
He came to the quiet backyard, where there were only Mo Zeshen, Lu Qingtang, and two guards.
Lu Qingtang stepped forward and handed over a painkiller and a glass of water, "Would you like to take some medicine? It will relieve the pain."
Dong Chengbin had never seen Western medicine before, and only saw a small white spot lying on the palm of her hand. He hesitated and said: "If I take this medicine, I'm afraid it won't be the same if I pretend to do it, right?"
Lu Qingtang smiled dryly and said, "It's not that exaggerated. I'll just treat your inflammation."
Anyway, she persuaded Dong Chengbin to take painkillers.
This way she can feel satisfied.
After taking the medicine, Dong Chengbin took off his shirt and lay on the bench. The two guards picked up sticks and started beating him.
They are very skilled in their skills. They only look at the skin and flesh, but they won't actually hurt his muscles and bones. It will only take a few days to heal.
In order to make it more realistic, the whip was given a few symbolic blows to make it look like Dong Chengbin was tortured to pieces by Mo Ze.
After the beating, Dong Chengbin lay on the stool and shivered in pain.
He raised his head and looked at Lu Qingtang, "Didn't you say that it won't hurt after taking medicine?"
Lu Qingtang laughed harder than crying, "Maybe he ate less."
She said, putting a bottle of medicine into his hand, "Take this medicine, it will make you feel better quickly, otherwise I am afraid that you will get infected and even die."
Dong Chengbin looked grateful, "Then I'll ask the princess to take good care of Xinran."
After saying that, he was carried to the carriage by two guards.
Taking advantage of the darkness, the guards drove a carriage into Weinan County and dropped Dong Chengbin near Ji Zhai.
After they left, Dong Chengbin crawled to the back door of Ji's house with all his injuries and knocked on the street door.
When the boy who opened the door saw it was Dong Chengbin, he immediately reported the news to Ji Wuxuan, who was still sleeping. Ji Wuxuan was very surprised and quickly got up and dressed.
After not receiving any news from Dong Chengbin for these days, he thought he was dead, but didn't expect him to be alive.
Opening the back door, Dong Chengbin was lying on the ground, unconscious from the pain.
Ji Wuxuan was shocked again when he took the lantern from the boy's hand and approached him.
Sure enough, it was Dong Chengbin, and he was injured like this.
After hesitating for a moment, he ordered the boy to help Dong Chengbin into the house and asked the boy to ask the doctor to come and see his injuries.
Early the next morning, Dong Chengbin woke up, and his first sentence was to curse Mo Zeshen.
Ji Wuxuan was not surprised, because he was usually like this.
Once he was angry with Mo Zeshen, the first thing he did was to go to him and scold Mo Zeshen. He was tired of hearing it.
He sat in front of the bed and asked, "Why are you injured like this? Who did what to you?"
This is not asking knowingly.
Ji Wuxuan is an experienced veteran. He is good at observing people's subtle expressions and judging whether the person is lying through these subtle expressions.
Some time ago, he had expected that Mo Zeshen would imprison Ji Wuhen and his son for seven or eight days in Kaishan Temple, but he did not expect that Mo Zeshen would be able to release them.
Originally, he wanted to talk to Dong Chengbin to discuss countermeasures, but he couldn't contact him no matter what. After thinking about it, he should have slipped up and let Mo Zeshen realize that he had a problem.
So after Ji Wuhen came to the door, he showed his cards to his elder brother and showed his ugly face of wanting to seize the title.
He had always disdained Emperor Kang Yuan's cunning methods. He also wanted Li Zi and face, but he didn't have that much patience.
Now when he saw Dong Chengbin, he subconsciously became suspicious of him.
But the injury was so serious, and it seemed like he was being too careless.
is it really like this?
